Kari Gran is the founder of Kari Gran Skincare, a clean beauty line that provides simple, powerful products that actually work. But long before the skincare brand, Kari was facing something much more personal: a chronic illness, early menopause symptoms, and burnout from a demanding real estate career. In this episode, Kari sits down with me to discuss her journey from battling Graves’ disease and early menopause symptoms to discovering the dangerous hormonal effects of common skincare ingredients we all use.  We talk about the skincare-midlife connection, how hormone shifts impact dryness, wrinkles, and age spots (plus the vitamin C serum that actually works). Kari also shares the toxic ingredients hiding in your skincare and how to spot (and reverse!) sun damage, even if you were a tanning-bed addict in your 20s. We discuss key skincare truths every woman should know, especially if you're over 40 and still struggling with dryness, or tired of trying products that don’t work. Kari also debunks common SPF myths and breaks down the hormonal impact of endocrine disruptors. Join us today to get a better understanding of your skin, how to protect it as you age, and the small shifts that can help you feel more confident in your own skin.Kari Gran's Links:Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/company/karigranskin/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/karigranskin/RELAUNCH20 for 20% off at karigran.com https://karigran.com/Connect with Hilary:Website: https://therelaunchco.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/hilarydecesare/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheReLaunchCoInterested in being a guest on the ReLaunch Podcast or booking Hilary as a guest?
